JUST YOU & ME

Chapter 10

IF I ONLYKNEW...

Nolan's Pov

 "Mom" I called out.

"In the kitchen", she replied.

I turned towards Tanya and said,"So wanna join us for dinner?"

"No...um..Its getting late.I better get back now."

"Tanya dear, you should stay.Dinner is almost ready." Mom said.

"Maybe another time Mrs.Smith." Tanya replied.

"Ok. By the way thanks for tagging along for the shopping trip." I said.

"Pfft. I was bored to death. So I kind of invited myself to your house.Sorry don't mind." She giggled.

I smile,"You are always welcome. I don't usually go alone to shop these stuffs.Jess always tags along..."Then realization hit me and I stopped talking.

"Jessica.Right .You need to talk to her asap.Giving her a cold shoulder won't do any good mister."

"Yeah I know that.But she is one stubborn girl."

"You both need to just talk it all out.Ok I got to go now.Thanks again.Bye ."She waved .

Because of all the Nick-Jessica fiasco, I was damn angry.I saw Jess and Nick hugging just after the secret admirer thing .No wonder that admirer shit was indeed Nick.I thought they were in the same Maths class and as Jess used to talk about him,I assumed he liked Sarah.But after that roses in the locker bullshit he played shows clearly that I was wrong. 

And Jess couldn't have just told me that she liked Nick and they were a thing or something.I wouldn't have mind .Yeah I would be upset a little that she now has a boyfriend and thatz definitely not me but I would be happy that she is with someone who makes her happy.I saw her face when she opened read that letter he wrote;she seemed geniunely happy. Yes I was happy for her.But I don't know it felt wierd a bit .I just didn't know why.

At the hallway,I didn't mean to be rude with her at all.It just that my anger took over and blurted out something not even thinking about it.And then Tanya came into picture and I am sure Jess assumed it all wrong.When I said I was busy and I had plans;I meant with Mom because she just returned from her Italy tour .

I am damn sure that Jess assumed it to do something with Tanya.But she looked cute all jealous.Stop.Why would she be jealous about you and Tanya.There is nothing to be jealous about.Tanya, she is a nice girl and all but I don't know her at all .For Pete's sake we just met a few days ago.

That day at cafeteria, she was furious the way Tanya clinged to me and I could see she was overthinking about the situation like she always does.And I didn't mind her thinking that because she clearly didn't mention about Nick.I know childish.But duh It doesn't matter now.

I don't know why Jess has such an effect on me.All day she has been on my mind.We haven't talked to each other for so long. It almost feels like ages ago we chatted.

"Nolan, Jessica was here.She brought some cookies for you." Mom raised her eyebrows.

"What? Jess was here? When? What did she say? "

"Woah easy there.She said she came to apologize for earlier.I heard you have a fight going on." She sighed ," What happened? "

"Just teenage drama Mom. We are okay though. I'll just give her a call or something." 

"You better."

I started leaving when Mom said,"Oh God! Before I forget, we have to go to Samantha's place tomorrow morning before they leave for San Diego."

"San Diego? Why? "

Mom looked confused. "For the treatment. Daniel has tumour in his liver so they are leaving for San Diego tomorrow morning for his treatment .I thought Jessica told you about it."

"No.She didn't mention it.Damn.Is he ok? " I sighed pushing my fingers through my hair.

"Yes for now.But we have to visit him tomorrow ok?"

"Yup.But Jess didn't say anything about treatment."

"Cupcake seemed really sad about all this.You know she is such a Daddy's girl .Its been tough for them.When Samantha called me she literally cried on the phone. It was heart breaking.But one can only hope for the best to happen now."

Shit. Then I realized ,she tried calling and texting me.She said that she wanted to talk about something.

Geez, my damn ego got in the middle and I completely ignored her for a stupid reason.She will be in such a mess right now.

Daniel is so close to me.He is more important to me than my own father is.He has always been there for me whenver I lost hope or felt lost in life. When we were small, he was everything I wished my father was.Since little, I called him 'Mr.D' affectionately.

And all this time, I was fighting with Jess when she needed me the most.

What kind of bestfriend am I ?

I fucked up .Real bad this time.

Geez, they are leaving tomorrow morning.

I need to talk to Jess now.

Gosh! she even came here today to talk to me and while I was out fucking shopping ice-creams at Wal-mart.

If I only knew.

I sighed. I need to see her now.

"Mom I am leaving. I'll be back soon ." Then I ran.

"Where are you going this late?" She called out.

"I'm going to see this stubborn bestfriend of mine." I smirked.

Mom shook her head and said,"You kids.Drive safe and come back soon."

I smiled," Will do."
